Good family bowling alley. The restaurant and bar is great as well. Friendly staff.

The kid at the front desk was rude and definitely did not want to be there, or maybe just didn't want to help us? It was our first time coming so naturally I had questions and I got the shortest answers possible and the vibe was way off.
We had no issue with finding our lane, the area was clean. It was difficult to find a ball but we did it.

The kid working the kitchen was nicer than the other one but still just could tell he hated being there.

The bathroom was clean, there was vending machines up front so that was convenient too. The balls were rough, lots of chips but they got the job done.

We enjoyed our time playing the game , the lanes were fine!

I would give them another chance, maybe it was an off day. I'm a manager, so I know how hard it is to pump your team up sometimes but a little pep talk can change the day.

Normally this place is awesome. We took my niece and nephew there today and were told they couldn’t have bumpers because they were taller than the counter! We didn’t say anything initially, but after the second game, we asked again as we saw 4 other lanes with bumpers & the kids were taller than ours, but she refused again. A couple of our grandchildren got quite discouraged. We should have been able to make the decision when they were old enough & ready to play without bumpers. Thought she was joking the first time. They went on & played a second game ( after MawMaw’s convincing). As we paid we asked what the problem was & told the same thing. We have sang the praises of Tangerine to everyone we knew in the past, but unfortunately, quite the opposite

Great rainy day activity.

Today was extremely disappointing! They now will not let bowlers taller than 48” use bumpers or 6 pound balls. I walked the lanes and saw nothing but gutter balls in the scoring. Beginning bowlers need the bumpers and lighter balls, height has nothing to do with ability! I always brought the grandkids but today was the last time, they wanted to leave and felt defeated after one game. Such a shame that this rule has been implemented, it will be Tangerine’s loss.

Best place to get a rock and girl in town. Just ask any of the ladies for a good time.

If you check their website, it says, “ If you want bumpers, they’re on all lanes”! I took a screenshot. They’ll probably change the website now. Sorry, we really did enjoy this place in the past!

To costly to bowl

This alley has been supporting Quincy families for years - it's an amazing place for birthday parties, reunions, nights out or rainy afternoons. Good food, good times, good people.

The place is outdated, not horrible though. The food is good and they have a nice selection of options. They bring the food to your lane, which is awesome. Some of the lanes break but they have just moved us over, no big deal. The kids love coming here. Always a fun time.

Decent environment a few things too once inside lanes are decent asl and the service was not and nice cheap pricing we coming back

Alex Hannan

It’s ok. The lanes aren’t maintained that well and the equipment malfunctions a fair amount of the time. Balls get jammed in the machinery several times a game. Facilities are fairly old. Also, I agree with other posters that this is not a family friendly facility.

We had a blast today. Celebrating St. Patty's Day and 2 birthdays at the same time. Best family fun ever!!!
